Extend Autonomous Simulations to Ice Training Simulators for Machine Learning Applications
FY 2022-23 · 2022-11-01
Summary
Virtual Marine’s ice management simulators are currently instructor-led and performance tracking is recorded and measured by an instructor. In this project, new software and scenarios will be developed for the ice management simulators to provide automated tracking and autonomous scenarios, and features will be implemented to assess performance in a variety of automated scenarios that have been developed for ice navigation training (e.g. ice breaking, pack ice management and ice recognition). Subsequently, additional software modules will be developed to track performance data and to form competency models that will provide inputs to adaptive training modules.

Description (French)
Les simulateurs de gestion des glaces de Virtual Marine sont actuellement dirigés par un instructeur ou une instructrice ,et le suivi du rendement est enregistré et mesuré par un instructeur ou une instructrice. Dans le cadre de ce projet, un nouveau logiciel et de nouveaux scénarios seront développés pour les simulateurs de gestion des glaces afin de fournir un suivi automatisé et des scénarios autonomes, et des fonctions seront mises en œuvre pour évaluer le rendement dans une variété de scénarios automatisés qui ont été développés pour la formation à la navigation dans les glaces (p. ex., le bris des glaces, la gestion de la banquise et la reconnaissance des glaces). Par la suite, d’autres modules logiciels seront développés pour suivre les données de performance et former des modèles de compétences qui fourniront des données aux modules de formation adaptative.
